FLORENCE (ITALPRESS) – “I have paid my debt to justice. With a conviction and a sacrosanct disqualification, with continuous and justified humiliation, with the shame felt and the risk of never getting up again. I told about my pathology, serious, in schools, to my family members, friends and the press. That same press that often addresses the serious issues of my illness and how to deal with them, but today puts me back in the pillory. Once again.” Nicolo Fagioli breaks his silence and vents on social media after being back in the limelight despite himself for the betting case, complete with wiretaps published in the media.
“I bore the burden of having committed something bad,” Fagioli added, “Of having let down all the people who believed in me. It’s certainly not news by now: without any victimhood, I went through a dark period, I suffered from a bad pathology, and this is by no means a justification. But seeing now all this media hype is making me relive those ghosts. No, this time all this is not right.” Beans then pointed out, “I was wrong, I paid, without having hurt anyone but myself and the people next to me.”
“And like any person who makes mistakes and pays, I have every right to get back up,” the Fiorentina midfielder wrote again. “Everyone, even those writing today, can fall and make mistakes. The important thing is to know how to recognize it, and I believe that a man’s strength lies in knowing how to get back up. I was 19 years old at the time of the events and gambling addiction had taken over me. I regretted it, but life has given me a second chance and I would like to take it, having already served everything I had to serve.” “I ask for respect now, after having faced a trial, taken a just sentence – Fagioli’s appeal – I apologize to all colleagues, to all friends who, because of my mistakes find themselves, despite themselves involved or named – even if only in a newspaper line – in this situation just for having helped me. And I thank Fiorentina, Juventus, friends and my family, who never stopped supporting and helping me in a diffcile moment. Although I have definitely let them down. I won’t come back to this topic, now I just have to think about giving my best on the field.”
